There has to be a cross referenced belt for this somewhere.

 

I would agree, but no one has been able to help find one. My truck is down until then, so far I have called a dozen places and got nothing.

 

autzone shows them in stock
Duralast Belt 975K7
$43.99

 

When I put in my model with the eAssist (Hybrid) it says that belt doesn't fit my truck. I have a very special setup because of that motor configuration.

 

Have you tried here?

GM 12669975 AC belt, genuine OEM part

5.3L, with eassist. Sierra, silverado. Part Is Not Reusable, Replace Only. GM genuine OEM part.

oemcats.com

It mentions that it is available at 69 shops

 

This makes you feel really comfortable taking your "newer" (9 years newer than my truck) out of town on a trip.

I would buy two or three!

 

If you have the old one take it in a parts store and see if they will help you match it to something the same size. Might get lucky.

Or start searching for a parts truck and get it from there

I typed the part number in google and one of the links that showed it in stock was this Chevy dealer in Michigan
Gmc Sierra 1500 Accessory Drive Belt - 12669975 | GEORGE MATICK CHEVROLET, INC., REDFORD TOWNSHIP MI (matickchevy.com)
Not sure where you are but I'm in Virginia and after taxes and shipping it shows $70.57

 

I ordered from them this morning, they canceled my order and said their site shows all parts but they can't actually get it.

 

I checked OEMCats and they just point to parts sites and when you select those it shows out of stock. I looked at all of those. Also someone mentioned 12667356, that is the serpentine belt not the AC. I need that AC belt, talked with all the local parts stores and gave them the details from AC delco and they don't have any options for me.

 

Well that's a crock of shit

 

I would do as suggested above and go to the store with your belt and see if they can find a match. I had this issue on an older car and a tractor belt ended up fitting..

otherwise....you can always have a custom one made.

I just called the local Chevy dealer. The guy looked it up and said GM doesn't make it anymore and it doesn't have any replacement number. He was pretty surprised as I think we all are.
He did say it showed it was a 4 rib stretch belt and 14mm wide but he said it didn't show the length.
Crazy as hell.

 

This page shows it is 60.31" in length

Closest thing I could find is this one at Oreillys. It says it is a Gates K040595 4 rib 60 inch 14mm wide belt

Gates Micro-V Serpentine Belt 4 Rib 60 Inch K040595 | O'Reilly Auto Pa (oreillyauto.com)

It's $26.10 on Amazon with free returns if it doesn't work

Wow, that's actually insane.

I'll add my eyes to the hunt

 

If you can't find a belt that's close enough, I would then be looking at how to add an idler/tensioner to use a longer belt (fabbing up a mount that bolts to the motor somewhere).

 

Along that line...if you have an idler/tensioner, perhaps changing the pulley size may accommodate a longer or shorter belt.

 

This company claims they have one:

ACDelco 12669975 GM Original Equipment A/C Compressor Belt with Installation Tool

Or maybe this one:
I've also found a Bando Belt that is within 1mm of the length and is a 4 rib.

maybe this is close?
I would check their site further if that's not right, they seem to make a lot of belts.

 

You might also contact Continental, they make a whole bunch of belts of various types. They might have something close:

Just spoke with another parts guy and he couldn't believe it also, said I might need to call a place to have a custom belt made. My belt shows has 5 rib 4 groove, so the one from Oreilley's probably won't work.

 

I would suggest an industrial bearing and drive components company. With the dimensions you have they should be able to find it.

 

Any update on this? We find ourselves in the same position with a 2017 Silverado and theyre telling us our only option is to sell the vehicle and take the loss...

 

What does a spell drive besides the AC

 

hey man i got a 18 silverado with the same exact problem and im just tryna figure out if you got your issue resolved and if you got any advice on what i could do

 

wait wait wait, you guys are specifically referring to the hybrid version of the belt, correct?

The ones for gas trucks are available. I just bought 2 from gates off rockauto last week for my 2018 AC belt. hopefully I didnt misread the topic here haha

 

yes sir specially the hybrid the AC belt is routed to the water pump as well as the air compressor
